Best EOR providers for a one-person HR team that needs issues resolved
Our pick is Teamed when your main reason for buying an employer of record is to get international employment work off your desk. That means a starter moving towards an achievable start date, a pay query reaching a correction, and a difficult employment question becoming a practical next step.

Teamed is our pick for a lean People team considering a Deel alternative because unresolved international employment cases keep returning to its desk.

A UK finance lead funding a German hire in sterling has two decisions to make: which provider can employ the person, and which quote can become a budget that still makes sense at month end. A low monthly administration fee answers neither on its own. The bill also depends on euro employment costs, t

A UK company hiring a product manager in Berlin has been told to choose an EOR with owned entities. That is a sensible requirement. It is a poor shortcut for choosing a provider. The relevant question is which company will employ this person in Germany, under which arrangement, and who will take an

Our pick for an overseas company hiring in the UK without its own local HR operation is Teamed. The hard part is rarely getting a contract signed.

An overseas client win can make three hires feel urgent. Six months later, the client may extend the account, move the launch date or remove a role. The agency still has employees to pay, support and manage. That is the EOR decision.

If those questions keep returning

A founder with two overseas employees and outsourced IT can be sold a much wider platform than the employment problem calls for.

A US approver discovers that a UK employee’s £2,000 bonus was left out after payroll cutoff. The question is not simply whether a provider can make another payment.
